wherein the door body, the door panel, and the fastening member are configured so that, to mount the door panel on the door body,
the protrusion is insertable into the opening so as to be accommodated in the upper door cap, and
with the protrusion inserted into the opening so as to be accommodated in the upper door cap,
at least a portion of the fastening member is passable through the fixing hole to fix the door panel to the door body, and
a first end portion and a second end portion, opposite to the first end portion, of the door panel are contactable with the first chassis and the second chassis so as to be supported by the first chassis and the second chassis, respectively.
2. The refrigerator of claim 1 , wherein the first end portion is a bent left edge portion of the door panel and the second end portion is a bent right edge portion of the door panel.
3. The refrigerator of claim 1 , wherein
the door body includes a cover,
the first chassis is located at a left side of the cover and the second chassis is located at a right side of the cover, and
when the door panel is mounted on the door body, the cover faces the door panel.
4. The refrigerator of claim 3 , wherein
the door body has an insulating material provided inside the door body, and,
when the door panel is mounted on the door body, a front surface of the cover is spaced apart from the door panel and a rear surface of the cover contacts the insulating material.
5. The refrigerator of claim 3 , wherein
the door panel includes:
a buffer member including at least one of a shock absorbing material and a sound absorbing material,
a first magnetic body arranged at a first side of the buffer member and longitudinally extending along a first edge portion of the door panel, and
a second magnetic body arranged at a second side of the buffer member, opposite of the first side of the buffer member, and longitudinally extending along a second edge portion of the door panel, opposite the first edge portion of the door panel, and,
when the door panel is mounted on the door body, the buffer member is between the cover and the door panel, and the first magnetic body and the second magnetic body generate an attractive force with respect to the cover to fix the door panel to the door body.
6. The refrigerator of claim 1 , wherein
the door body includes a lower door cap coupled to a lower portion of the first chassis and a lower portion of the second chassis, and,
the door panel, while mounted on the door body, protrudes further forward than the lower door cap.
7. The refrigerator of claim 3 , wherein the cover includes cover holes through which fixing parts pass to fix the cover to the first chassis and the second chassis.
8. The refrigerator of claim 1 , wherein
the door panel is made of metal,
a left edge portion of the door panel is bent to thereby form the first end portion,
a right edge portion of the door panel is bent to thereby form the second end portion, and
the first chassis and the second chassis include edge accommodating portions formed to respectively accommodate the left edge portion and the right edge portion of the door panel while the door panel is mounted on the door body.
9. The refrigerator of claim 1 , wherein the door panel, while mounted on the door body, protrudes further forward than the first chassis and the second chassis.
10. The refrigerator of claim 1 , wherein
the upper door cap includes an opening formed at an upper side of the upper door cap, and,
the at least a portion of the fastening member is passible through the opening formed at the upper side of the upper door cap to be passed through the fixing hole to fix the door panel to the door body.
